Over at The ClosetGrandmaster Blog, TCG wonders how chess is ever going to compete with the new generation of video games. Coincidentally the Canberra Times had an article today describing the resurgence of board games as a popular past time. Can both points of view be correct?
Here are links to both articles, no-dough-no-glam-no-chicas and This time it's personal (direct link to the Guardian rather than the edited Canberra Times version).
Maybe they both are, as while the Guardian article does talk of an increase in board game players, it does remark that the "classic" games (chess,bridge,backgammon and even poker) aren't the ones growing.
